WTA Power Rankings
Wimbledon has been the most unpredictable Grand Slam event on the women’s side for the last few years. The last time a player seeded in the Top 16 won the title was 2021. The last two editions of The Championships were won by players outside the Top 30.
With the way Aryna Sabalenka, Coco Gauff, and other big names have largely dominated so far in 2025, it feels like this is a year where some form of normalcy will resume at the All-England Club. But as soon as you think that, something crazy will happen.
Trying to predict Wimbledon results in this day and age may be a fools errand, but the National Bank Open Power Rankings panel is going to give it a shot anyway.
(Brackets indicate change in position since the last edition of the Power Rankings from the before Roland-Garros.)
1) Aryna Sabalenka (-)
- Actual Ranking: 1
- 2025 Record: 42-8
- Notable Recent Result: WTA 500 Berlin SF
- Best Wimbledon Result: Semifinal (Two times)
Falling short in two Grand Slam finals this year, Sabalenka still has a pair of opportunities to secure her first major title of 2025 with her next chance coming at Wimbledon.
However, a finals appearance would be the world No. 1’s first at the All-England Club. Sabalenka reached the semifinal twice in the last three years, having to withdraw in 2024 due to a shoulder injury.
The 27-year-old has looked sharp on grass as she prepares for her return to the All-England Club, defeating former Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina in the Berlin quarter-final before losing to another former champion and the eventual champion Marketa Vondrousova.
– Francesco
2) Coco Gauff (-)
- Actual Ranking: 2
- 2025 Record: 31-9
- Notable Recent Result: Berlin round of 16
- Best Wimbledon Result: 4R (Three times)
Gauff hasn’t had much to show for on the lawn so far this year, losing her opening match in Berlin to eventual finalist Xinyu Wang. But, coming off her second major title at Roland-Garros, there is no doubt she is still a favourite at Wimbledon.

The American No. 1 reached the fourth round at the All-England Club in her maiden Grand Slam main draw appearance in 2019. Add on another two fourth round finishes and six more years’ experience, Gauff’s first WTA grass final could be on the biggest stage.
– Francesco
3) Iga Swiatek (+1)
- Actual Ranking: 8
- 2025 Record: 32-10
- Notable Recent Result: Bad Homburg QF*
- Best Wimbledon Result: Quarter-final (2023)
The same as Gauff can really be said about Swiatek. So often referred to as the Queen of Clay, the world No. 8 has yet to be crowned a WTA champion on grass but does have a Wimbledon junior title to her name.
Swiatek’s first match on the lawn this year was in the Bad Homburg round of 16, where she breezed by two-time Wimbledon semifinalist Victoria Azarenka in straight sets.
As her junior days suggest, the Pole certainly has the potential for a run at the All-England Club, the only major where Swiatek has not reached the semifinal as a pro.
– Francesco
4) Madison Keys (+5)
- Actual Ranking: 6
- 2025 record: 30-9
- Notable Recent Results: WTA 500 London SF
- Best Wimbledon Result: Quarter-Final (Twice)
Will 2025 be the year when Madison Keys takes the next step at the All-England Club? Given everything she has accomplished so far this season, there is no reason to doubt her.
Wimbledon is the only major where Keys has never reached the semifinals, but she has also been very consistent in SW19, reaching at least the fourth round in her last three appearances. Her big ball striking is well-suited to the lawns of London.

Keys has had a bit of bad luck lately, having lost to the eventual champion in her last three tournaments, including both of her warm-up events on grass (London to Tatjana Maria, Berlin to Marketa Vondrousova).
– Pete
5) Elena Rybakina (New)
- Actual Ranking: 11
- 2025 Record: 29-12
- Notable Recent Result: Berlin and London QF
- Best Wimbledon Result: Champion (2022)
The only former Wimbledon champion on the list, Rybakina seems to always be in the mix at the All-England Club. The Kazakhstani has made at least the Wimbledon quarter-final three-straight years, reaching the semifinal in 2024 where she lost to eventual champion Barbora Krejcikova.
Rybakina has three wins from five matches to begin the grass season but there shouldn’t be much surprise if she triples that win tally for back-to-back Wimbledon semifinals.
– Francesco
6) Qinwen Zheng (-)
- Actual Ranking: 5
- 2025 record: 19-10
- Notable Recent Results: WTA 500 London SF
- Best Wimbledon Result: Third Round (2022)
Grass has not been a favourite surface in Zheng’s career so far, but she has reason for optimism heading into the 2025 Championships, fresh off a semifinal run at the Queen’s Club where she picked up wins over Emma Raducanu and Mccartney Kessler.

The Olympic gold medalist has been dialed-in over the last few months. She has reached at least the quarter-finals in six of her last seven events, including Roland-Garros, Queen’s, and three WTA 1000 events. She also likes the fast hard courts, so if she can treat grass the same way, she should be a big threat.
– Pete
7) Jasmine Paolini (-4)
- Actual Ranking: 4
- 2025 Record: 25-10
- Notable Recent Result: Bad Homburg quarter-final*
- Best Wimbledon Result: Runner-Up (2024)
Paolini certainly had a career year in 2024, which included a run to the Wimbledon final. The Italian had impressive wins over Keys and Emma Navarro en route to finishing as runner-up but this grass season hasn’t been as fruitful so far.
Paolini lost in her opening match in Berlin to two-time Wimbledon finalist Ons Jabeur, only winning four games.
The Tuscany-native responded with a tight opening-match victory against Leylah Annie Fernandez in Bad Homburg as Paolini looks to string together some wins before heading to the All-England Club.
– Francesco
8) Mirra Andreeva (-3)
- Actual Ranking: 7
- 2025 record: 31-9
- Notable Recent Results: WTA 250 Bad Homburg QF*
- Best Wimbledon Result: Fourth Round (2023)
While she has cooled off a little bit after dominating the early WTA 1000 events, Andreeva has settled into being a rock-solid Top 10 player. Starting with her title run in Dubai in February, the teen reached the quarter-finals or better at five of her last six “big” (WTA 1000 or Grand Slam) events.
One of Andreeva’s early major breakthroughs came at the All-England Club, when she reached the fourth round at age 16. Still just 18, Andreeva is not a player who gets overawed by the occasion and is not someone other players will want to see in their draw.
– Pete
9) Jessica Pegula (-2)
- Actual Ranking: 3
- 2025 Record: 31-12
- Notable Recent Result: Bad Homburg quarter-final
- Best Wimbledon Result: Quarter-final (2023)
Pegula’s game on the lawn may be picking up at just the right time. The American No. 2 lost in three sets in her Berlin opener but followed that up with a comfortable victory in Bad Homburg, dropping just five games to Katerina Siniakova.
Pegula’s next match is an all-American clash against world No. 10 Navarro and a win for the Buffalo-native will be Pegula’s most notable on grass since her championship run in Berlin last year, where she defeated Gauff.
– Francesco
10) Amanda Anisimova (New)
- Actual Ranking: 13
- 2025 Record: 25-12
- Notable Recent Result: London runner-up
- Best Wimbledon Result: Quarter-final (2022)
Anisimova’s impressive trip to the final at the Queen’s Club is the reason the American rounds off this list. The 23-year-old earned Top 10 wins over Navarro and Zheng before losing out in the final to Tatjana Maria.

Anisimova took a break from tennis in 2023 and was unable to make it out of qualifying at Wimbledon the following year. However, the world No. 13 is back at her best in 2025 and has the potential to add more Top 10 victories to her resumé at the All-England Club.

How Gen Z is leading latest boom in distance running
Dec. 9, 2025, 6:02 a.m. ET
- Distance running is experiencing a surge in popularity, particularly among Gen Z.
- Athletes who under-fuel their bodies risk a condition called Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (REDs).
- Symptoms of REDs can include fatigue, hormonal problems, bone density loss, and decreased performance.
Distance running is having a moment — and it’s largely being led by Gen Zers, whose participation has been on the rise since the pandemic ended.
In recent years, we’ve seen high-profile celebrities such as Harry Styles, Colin Farrell, Kevin Hart, Ashton Kutcher, Jennifer Connelly and Chelsea Clinton, among others, complete full marathons. In turn, races of all distances nationwide are seeing a dramatic spike in participation.
And that certainly goes for all of the events — 5K, 10K, half-marathon, marathon relay and full marathon — that will take place Dec. 13-14 in downtown West Palm Beach at the annual Palm Beaches Marathon weekend.
But back to Gen Zers: According to Road Runners Club of America “from 2021 to 2024, the percentage of finishers aged 20 to 29 have increased from 16.4% to 24.5% in the marathon, 17.1% to 26.2% in the half marathon, 13.9% to 20.6% in the 10K and 12.3% to 17.2% in the 5K.”
In addition, there’s been a marked increase in membership in running clubs across the nation.
As Runner’s World noted earlier this year, “Run clubs are replacing dating apps. Brands are tapping these groups for sampling and sponsorships. Celebs like Diplo and blink-182 drummer Travis Barker are starting their own run clubs. Around 7 percent of runners surveyed for Running USA’s annual report in 2023 stated that they were part of a running club. And Strava saw a 59 percent increase in new clubs in 2024, according to the tracking platform’s annual Year in Sport report, with Gen Z as the leading contributor to that growth.”

TikTok and Instagram are chock-full of fitness and beauty influencers documenting their training and race-day experiences — and their followers are taking note. This has led to more sneaker and apparel brands targeting their distance running gear to younger consumers, further fueling the rise in the sport’s participation rates.
Seeing so many young adults lean into becoming endurance athletes is certainly heartening — especially when you think about how beneficial this could be for decreasing the nation’s obesity rates.
That said, there are some aspects of becoming an endurance athlete that young folks — especially women — must stay vigilant about avoiding so as to ensure they can partake in their favorite road races for years and decades to come.
Dangers of Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (REDs)
We all know that proper nutrition — which includes sufficient caloric intake— is the foundation for undertaking any kind of athletic pursuit.
And this is especially true for endurance sports — running, cycling, swimming and the like.
But regardless of one’s age, gender or ability level, there’s a perpetual risk for endurance athletes to under-fuel their body’s basic caloric needs.
When that happens, the athlete becomes vulnerable to suffering from a syndrome known as “Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport” (REDs).
The term was introduced by the International Olympic Committee in 2014 and while it was originally coined to expand on an existing condition for elite competitors called “the female athlete triad” (which is comprised of irregular menstruation, loss of bone mass and disordered eating), in recent years experts have been stressing that REDs can affect anyone.
CNN explains that “Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (REDs) occurs when an athlete of any gender has overtrained and/or under-eaten for a prolonged period in an attempt to improve their performance, often without knowing the dangers of failing to compensate for the energy they expend in training and racing.”
The potential complications of suffering from REDs are myriad and they include the following:
- Fatigue
- Weight loss
- Missed or irregular periods
- Hormonal problems
- Digestive problems
- Bone density loss
- Stress fractures
- Repeated muscle or connective tissue injuries
- Cold intolerance
- Low sex drive
- Frequent illness
- Slow heart rate
- Low blood pressure
- Decreased athletic performance
- Hair loss
- Trouble focusing
- Irritability
- Depression
- Anxiety
Identifying — and treating — root causes of REDs
Many athletes suffering from REDs may have other mental-health complications that contribute to the condition.
Body image issues and/or disordered eating habits are the most commonplace. It also happens frequently to folks who put intense pressure on themselves and/or are perfectionists.
In those instances, the athlete may benefit from being treated via a multidisciplinary approach that includes education and consultations with experts such as nutritionists, sports psychologists, sport-specific coaches, and/or sports medicine doctors.
Another potential factor perhaps contributing to recreational endurance athletes suffering from REDs is how many people nowadays are taking GLP-1 medications to control their weight.

Those on GLP-1 medications usually have decreased appetites as well as decreased overall interest in, and enjoyment of, food.
It’s easy to see how those on GLP-1 medications who become involved in an endurance sport may inadvertently end up suffering from REDs during their training.
For most recreational athletes who may be suffering from REDs, the condition can usually be rectified by a combination of eating a well-planned, nutrient-dense diet and incorporating more rest days into the training program. That’s where consultation with the nutritionists, coaches, and healthcare experts can be so beneficial.
The bottom line is that participation in an endurance sport should be a fun and rewarding pastime — one that contributes to, rather than detracts from, your overall health and well-being.

Chloe Leluge Earns 2025 AVCA All-Pacific Region Honorable Mention
Ranking 2nd in the Big West and 36th in Division I with a .383 hitting percentage, Leluge has helped keep Cal Poly’s offense in the national top-20 for most of the season. The team currently sits 18th heading into the NCAA Tournament Regional Semifinals, marking the program’s first return to this stage since 2007.
Even if her career ended today, Leluge’s .372 career hitting percentage would far outpace the current program leader in the Division I era by 17 points. Her current season rate also places her in the top-10 on the program’s single-season leaderboard. A true two-way middle blocker, Leluge co-leads the team and the conference this season with 130 total blocks.
Just a few weeks ago, Cal Poly upset top-seeded UC Davis to win the Big West title and secure an automatic NCAA bid. Leluge, who committed only one error on 57 attacks throughout the tournament, was named Big West Championship MVP and later to Michella Chester’s NCAA Rotation of the Week.
Since then, Leluge has been instrumental in helping the Mustangs topple ranked programs BYU and USC in the NCAA Tournament to advance to the Sweet 16. She helped stun the Cougars in the first round’s opening set, tallying six kills to kickstart Cal Poly’s tournament run, before recording a trio of block assists against USC, extending her multi-block streak to 13 matches.
As arguably one of the best all-around middle blockers in the country, Leluge has positioned herself to continue an already legendary career while helping propel Cal Poly to one of the single greatest seasons in program history.

Cail Named to 2025 AVCA Central All-Region Team
JONESBORO, Ark. (12/9/25) – Arkansas State volleyball middle blocker Daedrianna Cail was named to the Division I Central All-Region First Team by the American Volleyball Coaches Association, as the organization announced its regional teams for the 2025 campaign on Tuesday.
Cail is the Red Wolves’ 10th AVCA All-Region selection in program history and the first to secure a spot on the first team since Mallory Warrington and Markie Schaedig achieved the feat in 2016.
The Marion native tallied a program-record 183 total blocks alongside 282 kills and a .355 attack percentage over 31 matches and 119 sets played. The All-Sun Belt Conference First Team selection ranks second nationally for total blocks and fifth for blocks per set, averaging 1.54.
Cail posted five-plus blocks in 18 matches and registered a career high of 15 to lead A-State past Texas State in a 3-2 (15-25, 25-23, 25-23, 22-25, 15-10) victory in the Sun Belt Volleyball Tournament semifinals. In addition, the senior landed double-digit kills in 14 matches, including a season and career high of 19 at Georgia State on Sept. 26.
Cail was named Sun Belt Volleyball Tournament Most Outstanding Player following the Scarlet and Black’s victory over James Madison in the championship round.
Following the all-region selection, Cail is eligible for AVCA All-America consideration. All-America teams will be announced on Wednesday, Dec. 17.
